I watched a lot of Alessandro Nesta videos, as he had similar characteristics, studied carefully and applied myself.
At college, everyone’s milestones occurred in shared clumps. Everyone studied, caroused, won, lost – simultaneously. Life is not like that.
In the evenings I studied chemistry at the University of Chicago, the weekends I helped in the family store.
At Cardozo, study of law is part of a larger culture. You can get a law degree and make a good living, but it is best that you do that having studied the discipline for its own inherent merit, because you love studying.
Smiles come naturally to me, but I started thinking of them as an art form at my command. I studied all the time. I looked at magazines, I’d practice in front of the mirror and I’d ask photographers about the best angles. I can now pull out a smile at will.
I studied dancing a little bit when I was young.
I became enamored with photography when I was about 13 or 14 years old. I’ve been at it ever since. I studied seriously in the ’70s.
And so I have studied, I have to tell you, revolutions and uprisings for a long time. They are all slightly different, but what they all look for is some kind of a mechanism to go from an authoritarian system to an open, democratic system.
I studied Judaism a lot. I studied religion in general, and I have never imposed my Judaism on my kids. They are what they want to be. I think… you must care for others. That’s the correct religion, I think.
My childhood was spent in a typical Mumbai chawl at Girgaum and I studied at the nearby St. Sebastian School.

More and more NFL players have been willing their bodies to science so that their brains can be studied even if they die of other causes.
I had never written anything. And I had never studied writing. So my motives were pure: I had a great story… a courtroom drama that I sort of fictionalized, and that became ‘A Time to Kill.’
I actually studied with The Groundlings.
Portland is the perfect weekend getaway. I studied acting in Portland and lived there for five years. It’s a small city with so much to do. There’s beautiful scenery, a great bar scene, and so many fabulous restaurants.
I never studied sculpture, engineering or architecture. In fact, after college I applied to seven art schools and was rejected by all seven.
The truth is, I love history and studied it in college, with a particular focus on early American history. My love is so deep, in fact, I went to school at The College of William & Mary in Colonial Williamsburg.
I studied in London, so I was high street fashion conscious. For me it was more about fitting in rather than standing out.
I’m very obsessed with pop culture of the mid-century and it goes hand-in-hand with the music that I studied in school.
I was fifteen years old, and I hardly knew how to play a simple Bach prelude on the piano when I began to compose music, and at the most advanced level. I had never studied such things as harmony.
Well, first I studied piano. I wasn’t very satisfied because I though my teachers were dumb… and repressive.
And we are never too old to study the Bible. Each time the lessons are studied comes some new meaning, some new thought which will make us better.
I had actually studied political science in college. I had dreams of being a lawyer at one time.
I studied in Kerala, so learnt to read and write Malayalam.
Good acting is good acting, however you learn it. Some people who haven’t studied are amazing. Some people like Leonardo DiCaprio are naturally gifted – he’s learned technique by working with people early on.
As a teenage fisherman, I watched and followed terns to find fish. Later, I studied terns for my Ph.D.
I am not a method actor, though I studied for a year with Lee Strasburg.
I’ve studied a technique called the Sanford Miesner technique, that teaches you how to focus. It’s mainly about daydreaming. And the technique’s really about imaginary circumstances. Using your imagination to sort of daydream about stuff. It makes you emotional in a scene.
I studied abroad my junior year of college.
I had always studied French and was obsessed with French films. I hated the way American films always had happy endings. I liked the way French films had dark and unpleasant characters; it was much more realistic.
Over the years, I was lucky; right from the beginning, I studied with a lady who had a lot of… she was a classical singer, and of course, they’re a little bit more into, you know, preserving the voice, making sure your instrument is ready to perform.
There was a period of time when I studied ballet a lot when I was growing up.
By the time I wrote my memoir, ‘Men We Reaped,’ I had been running from writing it for a long time. When the events in the book were happening, I knew I’d probably write about them one day. I didn’t want to. I’d studied fiction, and I was committed to establishing myself as a fiction writer first.
I studied drama.
I studied acting at Carnegie Tech in Pittsburgh because I figured a good comedian certainly could act.
I studied at UC Santa Cruz before going on to do a grad program at UCLA. Santa Cruz was like an awesome hippie summer camp. I got to take a vacation from reality and hang out on beaches and in forests.
If you go to Wall Street, there is someone from Harvard, Stanford, etc, who relate to each other by the batch they studied in, the dorm they lived in, and so on.
I studied physics 12 in summer school after I completed grade 12. Did I enjoy it initially? No, I had found physics difficult since grade 11, and I struggled a lot. Did I learn from it? Yes, and as I improved, I started enjoying it more.
I went to performing arts high school, and I took dance and acting every day. Then, I went to Marymount Manhattan College and I have a B.A. in acting, with a concentration in theater performance and a minor in musical theater. I studied there for three years.
I was a Jewish rabbinical student for 12 years, and studied the Bible all the time.
Hard science fiction, which is what I write, often is rightly criticized for having either negligible or unbelievable characterization, but the science I’ve actually studied most post-secondarily is psychology, and characterization is the art of dramatizing psychological principles.
I studied literature and Italian at Yale. I wrote my thesis about Italo Svevo, one of my heroes.
We studied the light source in the direction of the magnetic force, we perforated the poles of the magnet; but even in the direction of the magnetic lines of force we found that our result was confirmed.
I don’t want to be an art-house movie guy, where people who go to film school can discuss your work, but people who haven’t studied cinema can’t appreciate it. By the same token, I don’t want to be the guy who’s making this commercial pap that people lap up but that disappears the minute you leave the theater.
Long before the idea of a writer’s conference was a glimmer in anyone’s eye, writers learned by reading the work of their predecessors. They studied meter with Ovid, plot construction with Homer, comedy with Aristophanes; they honed their prose style by absorbing the lucid sentences of Montaigne and Samuel Johnson.
It has always seemed to me that Barack Obama has studied intensely and learned a great deal from Lincoln.
If there was a dream match I could do, it would definitely be in a match against Curt Hennig. I think, growing watching him, I have hours and hours and hours of footage of ‘Mr. Perfect’ Curt Hennig and just studied his stuff for years.
I first studied the effect of plants on humans for my Yale thesis… and it was a 185-page thesis, and luckily I got honors on it.
The truth is I studied fine arts in Switzerland. I was just interested. I had no dream of being a movie star.

I left my career in Hollywood, moved back to New York, and went to Lee Strasberg and studied with him for the rest of his life.
In high school, we studied a lot of poetical forms. I was really interested in the math that was involved and the strange live break ups. That gave me a great amount of respect for a rhymed stanza.
Certainly, in college, I had no idea what I wanted to do, I studied art history and had a great time, but I didn’t have any sort of career aspirations.
I studied fine arts and architecture, but I decided to move into movie design because I grew up in a small town in the Marche region and spent a lot of time after school in the movie theater.
My father was a diplomat and served as Pakistan’s ambassador to 14 countries. I was born in London and grew up there and studied and lived in a hostel throughout in London and became a barrister.
I had a drummer in my band who started teaching me tricks to come up with interesting rhythms. Because I don’t come from a musical background, I’ve never studied music, and I don’t know music theory at all, so a lot of stuff I discover on my own are things students would learn in the first grade of music.
